Definitions

  • the subject of the present invention is a reception and dismantling cell for nuclear fuel assembly of the type comprising a bundle of fuel rods retained at the nodes of a regular network by a skeleton made up of two end pieces connected by tie rods and grids distributed over the along the tie rods.
  • the cell comprises a vertical structure of cross section corresponding to that of the assembly to be received, carrying mechanisms for retaining the grids and the lower end piece and a mechanism for holding the rods at their nominal spacing with combs movable between a position where they are out of the assembly and a position where the fingers of the combs engage between the pencils, above the highest grid remaining after removal of the upper endpiece.
  • the invention aims to provide a fuel assembly receiving and dismantling cell enabling the latter to be held firmly, to avoid the risk of damaging the rods during the separation of the upper end piece (generally by sectioning the tie rods constituted by guide tubes) and to avoid jamming of the rods during their subsequent extraction.
  • the invention provides a fuel assembly receiving and dismantling cell characterized in that the comb mechanism comprises at least two sets of combs carried by a chassis integral with said structure, the combs of each set being guided on the chassis and fitted with jacks enabling them to be brought closer and apart in a direction transverse to the direction of approach and spacing of the combs of the other set and in that one of the grate retaining mechanisms comprises jaws articulated on the structure and connected to simultaneous actuating cylinders making it possible to move the jaws between a position where they release the grid located immediately below the comb mechanism and a predetermined position relative to the structure where the jaws enclose said grid of all the sides.
  • the upper ends of the fuel rods remain precisely maintained at the nodes of a regular network when the assembly consisting of the upper end of the assembly, of a section of the guide tubes separated by cutting. and possibly the upper grid of the assembly is removed.
  • the comb mechanism comprises two sets of combs orthogonally displaceable and the retaining mechanism of the highest grid remaining after removal of the upper end piece comprises two sets of two jaws, at least one of the sets having lugs for hooking the grid opposing the upward movement of the latter.
  • the dismantling cell 12 which will be described by way of example is intended to receive a fuel assembly of the type shown in FIG. 1, commonly used at present in 900 MWe pressurized water reactors.
  • a fuel assembly of the type shown in FIG. 1, commonly used at present in 900 MWe pressurized water reactors.
  • Such an assembly comprises a skeleton and a bundle of fuel rods 2 distributed at the nodes of a square network.
  • the skeleton consists of two end pieces 3 and 4 connected by guide tubes 6 which replace the pencils in some of the nodes and grids 8 distributed along the guide tubes. These grids, eight in number in the embodiment described, are fixed to the guide tubes and define cells for guiding and holding the rods.
  • the cell 12 is in particular usable in a dismantling installation having the general constitution shown in FIG. 2, described in the document EP-A-0 218 494 to which reference may be made.
  • This installation placed in a pool for receiving assemblies extracted from the core of a reactor, includes a support cage 10.
  • the cell 12 for receiving and dismantling the assembly 14 to be dismantled rests on the bottom of the structure.
  • the cell comprises a rigid structure 16 carrying a comb mechanism 18 making it possible to hold the fuel rods at the nodes of their nominal distribution network, and means for holding the lower nozzle 4 and the grids.
  • the installation also includes tools that can be moved horizontally and vertically to allow them to work on the assembly 14 placed in the dismantling cell.
  • a cutting tool 24 is provided for cutting the guide tubes 6 connecting the end pieces 3 and 4 below the level of the upper grid 8a (FIG. 3) and for removing the assembly consisting of the end piece 3, cut sections of the guide tubes 6 and the upper grid 8a.
  • a gripping tool 28, suspended from a carriage 30 makes it possible to extract the pencils and to handle them.
  • the tool 28 shown comprises a frame 32 for vertical guide of the pencils, provided with combs 34, which can be of the type described in document FR-A-2 460 027.
  • the head 36 can be moved vertically in the frame 32 by a cylinder 38.
  • FIG. 2 finally comprises a quiver 39 for the defective pencils and a grouping cell 40 having a pyramidal quiver 42 for grouping the pencils in a bundle.
  • Figures 5 and 6 show the entire comb mechanism 18. For the sake of clarity, only one of the combs is shown in the inserted position, while in reality the opposite combs move simultaneously.
  • the mechanism 18 comprises a chassis 46 with two stages each assigned to a set of two opposite combs.
  • the upper set consists of two combs 48a moving horizontally in the plane of the figure, between a position where they are spaced from each other and a maximum insertion position where the teeth 50 of the combs are practically in contact .
  • the teeth 50 of each comb have a length corresponding to the half-width of the bundle of pencils.
  • Each comb 48a slides on two guide ramps 52 formed on the chassis.
  • Means for simultaneous displacement of two combs 48a comprise two cylinders 54 at fluid pressure, the cylinder of which is carried by the chassis 46 and the piston of which is connected to one of the two combs by a crosspiece 56.
  • each comb carries two lateral racks 58 which mesh with corresponding pinions 60 fixed on a common shaft 62 rotating in bearings fixed to the chassis 46.
  • the mounting and actuation of the combs 48b of the lower set is the same as that of the combs 48a, but the movements of the combs of one set are effected orthogonally to those of the combs of the other.
  • the same reference numbers have been used in FIG. 5 to designate the corresponding elements associated with the combs 48a and 48b.
  • the mechanism 20 shown in FIGS. 9 and 10 comprises two centering pins 64 carried by the bottom of the structure 16 and intended to engage in recesses of corresponding shape in the lower end piece 4.
  • the mechanism also comprises a single set of jaws 66 acting on two opposite faces of the end piece 4 and arranged symmetrically with respect to this end piece.
  • Each jaw 66 is movable between a position for clamping the end piece 14 (in solid lines in FIG. 9) and a position for releasing this end piece (in dashed lines).
  • Each jaw has a bearing face allowing it both to securely hold the nozzle 4 and to center it.
  • the bearing face of each jaw 66 is provided with pins 68 which pass between the adjacent fuel rods 2, bear against the upper face of the nozzle 4 and s oppose his uprising.
  • the jaws 66 are guided in their movement by pins 70 fixed to the structure 16 and trapped in elongated holes 72 of the jaws.
  • the movements of the jaws are controlled by respective jacks 74 (FIG. 9), the cylinder of which is articulated on a lug 76 belonging to the structure 16 and the piston of which is connected to an axis 78 passing through the jaw 66.
  • the cell shown in Figure 4 has two mechanisms 22 for simple maintenance of two common grids 8 of the assembly, to which is added a mechanism for holding and centering the high grid 8b which will be described later.
  • the two simple holding mechanisms 22 each grip a grid on only two sides.
  • the mechanism 22 located at the bottom grips for example the third grid from the bottom on its two faces parallel to the plane of FIG. 4 and the other mechanism 22 grips the fifth grid from the bottom, on the two faces perpendicular to the plane of Figure 4.
  • the two mechanisms 22 are identical.
  • the one shown in FIGS. 11 and 12 has a constitution very similar to that of the mechanism 20: it also comprises two jaws 80 each movable between a clamping position and a release position by a jack 82.
  • Each jaw 80 has a face support plate on the grid 8 and lugs of triangular section 84 engaging in the free spaces between the fuel rods 2 to retain the grid axially.
  • the supports of the lugs 84 can have the distribution shown diagrammatically in FIG. 13 for one of the jaws 80, an arrangement offset by the distance between two successive rods for the other grid. Thus each grid 8 is kept hooked at 14 points.
  • the lower mechanism 22 grips the grid 8 by two faces orthogonal to the faces gripped by the mechanism 20 for fixing and centering the lower end piece and orthogonal to the faces gripped by the other mechanism 22. This gives a distribution of the hooking lugs which is that shown diagrammatically in FIG. 14 and guarantees solid support.
  • the mechanism 44 for holding and centering the upper grid 8b (seventh grid from the bottom in the case of the assembly of FIG. 1) is provided for gripping the grid on its four faces. It may have the constitution shown in FIGS. 15 and 16, having only two cylinders 88, located opposite one another and intended to move two sets of jaws 86 and 87 two in two opposite directions.
  • the means for guiding the jaws will not be described, because they may have exactly the same constitution as those already illustrated in FIGS. 9 and 11.
  • a simultaneous control of the four jaws is obtained by fixing the pistons of the two jacks 88 to the same horizontal plate mobile 92 which surrounds the structure and which carries vertical rods 90 provided with axes 94 of jaw articulation.
  • the jaws 86 of only one of the two sets are provided with retaining pins 96.
  • a cell according to the invention can be provided for fuel assemblies different from that shown in FIG. 1, for example assemblies for a 1300 MWe reactor comprising an increased number of grids.
  • the various mechanisms described can still be used. All these mechanisms are simple in constitution and however guarantee the transverse and longitudinal maintenance of the lower end piece and of the grids and the maintenance of the rods at the nodes of a determined network, thus avoiding the risks of jamming during their extraction. Means similar to those which have been described could be used to dismantle an assembly having a hexagonal section and no longer square and rods distributed at the nodes of a triangular network.
  • the method of implementing the cell follows from the above description and therefore does not need to be detailed.
  • the fuel assembly to be dismantled is lowered into the cell, suspended from a handling tool, the jaws of the various mechanisms and the combs being separated.
  • the lower end piece 4 centers on the pins 64 at the end of its downward movement.
  • the cylinders 74 of the mechanism 20 are actuated to bring the jaws 66 closer together and grip the end piece 4 on two faces.
  • the grid holding mechanisms 22 and 44 are implemented: these mechanisms prevent the grids from deforming during the extraction of the fuel rods by facilitating their sliding.
  • the guide tubes are sectioned below the level of the high grid 8a and the assembly comprising this grid and the upper end piece 3 is removed.
  • the combs of mechanism 18 are brought together to maintain the upper ends of the fuel rods at the nodes of their nominal distribution network.
